Eunomia - 'The Story Goes On' (official lyric video)

The darkest night and hordes of evil
Has swallowed the light
We werent prepared for battle
And the upcoming fight
At the eve of night
You can hear the battlecries
Only the sound of clashing swords
Will be through the skies

We will have to show our might
Do what we feel is right
The power we now control
Will save our souls

The story goes on
The final chapter has begun
This is our time
We'll never fall
Come with me we'll change it all

The waves of evil forces
Are storming the line
Our hope deminish and
We just need a sign
Hold the ground and fight
For the lives you left behind
The everlasting hope of freedom
Has to be on your mind

We will have to show our might
Do what we feel is right
The power we now control
Will save our souls

The story goes on
The final chapter has begun
This is our time
We'll never fall
Come with me we'll change it all

The story goes on
The final chapter has begun
This is our time
We'll never fall
Come with me we'll change it all

Προ πενταετίας είχε κυκλοφορήσει το ντεμπούτο των Eunomia υπό τον τίτλο "The Chronicles of Eunomia Part I", κάτι που προϊδέαζε και για δεύτερο μέρος. Όντως ο διάδοχός του τιτλοφορείται "The Chronicles of Eunomia Part II" και αναμένεται στα μέσα του πρώτου φθινοπωρινού μήνα από την Rockshots Records.

Στον δίσκο, του οποίου το έδαφος προετοιμάζει το lyric video του επιλογικού τραγουδιού "The Story Goes On", συμμετέχει μία πλειάδα καλεσμένων μουσικών (βλ. tracklist). Οι Eunomia (με το Ελληνικότατο όνομα) μας έρχονται από την Νορβηγία.

Δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από μία ντουζίνα έτη κι έχουν κυκλοφορήσει ένα demo, ένα full length album κι ένα σινγλε. Ως προς το μουσικό τους ύφος; Heavy / power metal της Ευρωπαϊκής σχολής με επιρροές από Rhapsody Of Fire, Twilight Force, Dragonforce, Freedom Call και Hammerfall.

Δελτίο τύπου: «Norwegian adventure power metallers Eunomia are returning in 2023 with their sophomore full-length "The Chronicles of Eunomia Part II" for release on Rockshots Records this coming September.

Presenting epic, bombastic, fast, powerful fantasy through their compositions, this second record from Eunomia is a group effort, as the first full-length was completely written by band founder, vocalist, and keyboardist Peter Danielsen.

Joined by his brother Marius Danielsen (Legend of Valley Doom), bassist Alexander Ormseth, guitarist Magnar Winther Skorgenes and drummer Alessandro Kelvin (Perc3ption), the tracks on this new offering are more powerful and stronger than before with much more variety than their first effort.

"The Chronicles of Eunomia Part II" also features guests Alessandro Conti (Twilight Force), Arnaud Ménard (Alkemyst), Jimmy Hedlund (Falconer), Matt Krais (ShadowStrike), Ty Christian (Lords of The Trident), Mikael Dahl (Crystal Eyes), Olaf Hayer (Luca Turilli’s band, Dionysus), and Anders Sköld (Veonity).

Overall this second full-length has everything from power and symphonic metal elements to contagious choruses, fast double bass drums, and even slow epic songs that fit the storytelling perfectly.

"Everyone in the band has helped shape the new album. We worked hard to get this album the way it sounds. Re-written parts on many songs to make them as perfect as we could. I think the fans will hear that the band has evolved and become better, tighter, and more creative than on the first album.

Better melodies, better songwriting, and even more epic than ever. We have leveled up significantly on this album. I believe this album is 10x better than the first one and I think the choruses will be stuck in the minds of fans and I hope they press the replay button many times after listening to it for the first time" adds Peter Danielsen.

Mariius Danielsen also adds: "As the mixing and mastering engineer for this album, I must say it has been quite a journey. My brother and I have worked closely together on this album for about two years.

Learning new mixing tricks and carefully carving out space for every single instrument in a dense mix consisting of 250 tracks or so per song has been a cool process to be part of. I think we managed to create an epic-sounding Power Metal album full of glorious melodies and memorable hooks."

Today, Eunomia presents their first musical quest entitled "The Story Goes On".

"Let’s explode into our first single! This is the fastest song I have ever written, I have always wanted to make a song that could fit into a Dragonforce album. Ivan Giannini from Derdian / Vision Divine and Arnaud Ménard from Alkemyst sings their hearts out in this one.

Fast riffs, fast and melodic guitar solo from the one and only Jimmy Hedlund from Falconer, a lot of fast epic drums, and an epic chorus. This song is the last song on the album, but I felt it needed to be shown first because I love this song so much" comments Peter Danielsen.

Not slowing down, the band is already in the works for writing "The Chronicles of Eunomia Part 3" and looks forward to performing live. "I can't wait to bring back Eunomia as a live band again now that most of us live in the same city again.

We will try to tell the story of Eunomia with great energy, perfect performances, amazing guest artists, and awesome setlists." Recommended for fans of Rhapsody Of Fire, Twilight Force, Dragonforce, Freedom Call and Hammerfall, "The Chronicles of Eunomia Part II" is due out on September 15, 2023.»
